RealGM's Top-10 D-Leaguers

Jason M. Williams/RealGM -
With the NBA season halfway in the books, the standings are starting to settle and teams are beginning to pinpoint the minor tweaks that they will need to make for a playoff push. The trade deadline will come and go on February 22, 2008, and after that there will be many teams who failed to pull the trigger to acquire the talent they need to give them an added advantage. This is where teams will begin to use the NBDL as a source for untapped talent.

These young stars are currently competing night in and night out to fulfill their dreams of reaching the NBA. Since they play fewer games in the Development League and end their season earlier, they will likely be fully charged to handle the rigors of the NBA's grueling postseason. It was our job to analyze piles of NBDL game-tape and identify ten glaring NBDL names to keep an eye on when teams begin to call upon the D-League for help.

Here are the ten most exciting players we here at RealGM hope to see make an extended appearance on the big stage this season:

1. Carlos Powell

[Chuck Diesel]

that list is kind of a joke. Brent Petway?

[midranger]

Yeah, I'm sure that Golden State is just waiting for their stretch run to call up Lamse.

Was this written by a 12 year old?

Not sure if this deserved its own thread or not, so I decided to post it here.

Just an update about last night's NBDL game between the Tulsa 66ers and Dakota Wizards. Our two guys, Ramon Sessions and David Noel did very well (at least according to the scorecard) and the fact that the team won.

Ramon had some very beautiful numbers: 35 points (14-22 FGM-A), 11 assists, 7 rebounds, and 3 steals!

Noel had a decent game: 10 points, 5 assists, 4 rebounds, 1 steal and 1 block.

I was also going to post something about this. Both players had good games.

Nice, been a while since Ramon had one of those monsters.

Isn't Chuck D the resident D-league expert?

Besides, look at Petway's stats.
